A building 50 feet high casts a shadow 68 feet long. Find the measure of the angle of elevation of the sun. Round answer to near
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

36 °

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case a rectangular triangle is formed so we can use the trigonometric functions to calculate the angle, they give us the value of the two legs, therefore we can apply the tangent function.

Tan A ° = opposite / adjacent

replacing:

Tan A ° = 50/68

Tan A ° = 0.735

A ° = arc tan (0.735)

A ° = 36.32

Which means that the angle of inclination is 36°

What is the area of a rectangle if one side has a length of 12x^3 and
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The area of this rectangle is 72x^5

Step-by-step explanation:

A = l ∙ w

Let, l = length

Let, w = width

Step 1: Substitute the length and width for the two given values

    1. A = (12x³)(6x²)

Step 2: Multiply

    1. A = 72x^5

A high school sports team is ordering sports drinks online from a company. The price of sports drinks varies, based on the numbe
Elena-2011 [213]

The amount of drinks is a linear function of the number of drinks. The maximum amount that can be purchased is 100 soft drinks.

Let

y \to amount of drinks

x \to number of drinks

For drinks not more than 50

y = 10 + 0.8x

For drinks more than 50.

y = 15 + 0.7x

For a purchase of $85, it means that:

y = 85

So, we solve for x in both equations.

y = 10 + 0.8x

85 = 10 + 0.8x

Collect like terms

0.8x = 85-10

0.8x = 75

Divide through by 0.8

x = 93.75

x = 94 --- approximated

y = 15 + 0.7x

85 =15 + 0.7x

Collect like terms

0.7x = 85 - 15

0.7x = 70

Divide by 0.7

x = 100

By comparing both values:

x = 100

x = 94

100 > 94

Hence, the maximum amount that can be purchased is 100
